Features
Commander-in-Chief Bob Wallace Meets President in Oval Office - Leaders of the three major veterans organizations recently met with President George Bush to discuss critical issues.

50 Years Ago This Month: Bataan and Corregidor: Stalling the Japanese Juggernaut. For Several critical months in early 1942, U.S. and Filipino units courageously held the enemy at bay in the besieged Philippines.

A Spirit Revived: A Vietnam Vet's Triumph Over Adversity by Paul Martin - Lewis Puller, Jr., author of the best-selling Fortunate Son, was severely wounded in Vietnam. His story is a source of inspiration for all who have faced pain.
